God nihei's artstyle is so god damn beautiful now. Not saying it was ugly before, blame! And aposimz are fucking amazing. but this is just on another level. It reminds me of the style that the eu graphic novels have like tintin or alone. Anybody know of other works with this kind of artstyle?
It is a more minimalist artstyle, for sure. Some people prefer the more dense BLAME! artstyle, and disliked TD when it came out.
Personally, I think it's really beautiful, Nihei figured out how to be simple and effective, and I love that he keeps using the blacks nicely.
Any other works like this? Honestly, I don't know. It's very stylized but "grungy", which is an unusual combination. Maybe there are other comics like this out there, but if so I don't know of them.
